When Neil Young asked us to switch to Tidal, I went along and loved that it paid the artists 10x more per stream.

But Tidal is American owned, spotify isn’t…

I’m struggling on this one, a lot of the lil punk bands I love could really use the revenue but, y’know, trade war etc.

Anyone have any thoughts to assuage a guilty conscience on this one?

    Spotify gave Joe Rogan a platform, which likely contributed to the current situation in the US.

    How many specific bands are you trying to support? It might be better for everyone if you just send them $5 directly and pirate their stuff.
